As you have requested, the sample garment is being returned.

The garment falls within textile category designation 341. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of India are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa.

In addition, the designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected and should also be verified at the time of shipment.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
